Vascular integrins are essential regulators and mediators of physiological and pathological
angiogenesis, including tumor angiogenesis. Integrins provide the physical interaction with …

Background—The hematopoietic cytokine erythropoietin has cytoprotective effects in
endothelial cells in vitro that are mediated through direct activation of the pro-survival Akt …

Advanced aging may contribute to impairment of angiogenesis and development of vascular
diseases. Telomerase was shown to delay endothelial cell (EC) senescence. Therefore, we …

Hepatopulmonary syndrome (HPS) is a serious vascular complication of liver disease that
occurs in 5–32% of patients with cirrhosis. The presence of HPS markedly increases …

Angiogenesis is a key event in the progression of malignant gliomas. The presence of
microvascular proliferation leads to the histological diagnosis of glioblastoma multiforme …

Statin, 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase inhibitor, is known to promote
bone formation. However, it is not clear whether statin affects the differentiation of pulp cells …

BACKGROUND: The p53 and phosphoinositide‐3‐kinase, catalytic, alpha polypeptide/v‐akt
murine thymoma viral oncogene homolog/mechanistic target of rapamycin …

Endostatin is an anti‐angiogenic factor that inhibits endothelial cell (EC) migration and
induces EC apoptosis. Because nitric oxide (NO) plays a key role in vascular endothelial …

Studies have indicated that the consumption of green tea is associated with a reduced risk of
developing certain forms of cancer and angiogenesis. The mechanism of inhibition of …

Laminar shear stress exerts important effects on endothelial cell (EC) function and inhibits
apoptosis of ECs induced by various stimuli. The mechanism by which hemodynamic forces …
